I assume everyoneâ€™s gaydar went berserk while watching that interview. Here is what I imagine is going on:

Shirvell is a repressed homosexual whose desires were awakened by an intense sexual attraction to Armstrong. He may not even admit his true feelings to himself, or if he has, he loathes himself for it. Shirvellâ€™s continuous attacks on, and stalking of, Armstrong allow him to indulge his obsession in a way that is consistent with his need to also repress his homosexuality. Shirvell gets to focus on Armstrong 24/7 guilt-free because he is repressing his homosexuality at the same time. I think Shirvell is in very deep denial.

While religious indoctrination alone can certainly make people anti-gay, Shirvell is so over-the-top that he has to have personal internal issues in combination with that indoctrination.

By the way, I found the interview quite funny.

I sure hope it doesn’t result in a hung jury. If only he had picked Jules Padyoraski as his lawyer. the Pole smoked his last legal trial, coming from behind to clench the verdict. Bang on in his defense, He pounded the opposition.
